I'm a short arse too, and have no bother. :scratch::scratch:

I had this on my vr it turned out to a loose nut on the cable adjuster on the gear box. 2 min fix

It's your "reputation" which is affected by pressing the up/down error in the bottom bar below someone's post.

I don't seem to have the up and down arrows. should i is the question? lol

You are obviously a man of taste. Driving a Corrado and living in Yorkshire, fine choices!

That is quite right....Hello & welcome to you Jay, i'm not far away from thee just down the road from you in Rotherham.

I'm 48, had my vr 7 months.

Good luck with the car. Good find really, agree 1 owner from new a bit of a jem tbh.

IMHO unless your going to strip the engine I wouldn't use scotch-brite, wire wool or a steel wire brush just in case bits break off and get missed with the compressed air. I have used a brass brush to good effect instead which is softer and easier to spot any bits that have broken off.

Agree this is the way to go.

like the colour matasj89

That looks good mate, what make polishing soap did you use?

It was supplied with a kit i bought it is general polish blocks, there was a black bar, green and blue bar all of different grades

I did this to my engine of my bike, i know its not a car but it shows what can be done, i used the traditional mop / drill, and 3 types of polishing soap and a whole lot of time and effort.

Cool, cheers ray. Im just nosey and you are local to me so I thought id check....

Np matey....

Anyone up for Thursday night at the old post office instead of Wednesday? or both even?

Yes..I actually bought my corrado off this sellar and have texted him to give me a good price, as i spent nearly £3 grand and didnt get a badge with the car, back or front..Hands off ...:smug: lol

Hi Ray

 

Meet starts at 7pm.

Bit of a disappointing turnout last time, but hopefully ( weather permitting ) the next meet should be Ok.

 

Steve

Got into work tonight, got to do bloody 12 hour nights on the next due date of the meet, gutted !!!!

The meeting at Barnsley is at the Old Post Office, Haigh, just off the M1 at junction 38. As Vag-hag says, its on the second Wednesday every month.

 

Usually a good turnout, with a good mix of vans and cars, beetles, golfs etc ( only us in a Corrado )

 

Steve

Good,what time does every one usually start to arrive?

Dam missed this one this month :brickwall: havn't been able to go on the forum. Do the next one 11th sept then.

Hi, does any one know of any meets that are planned on the forum for owners in South Yorkshire and near by areas?

Would be good to organise one.
